What is the workload like in college?

When I go to college, I plan to get a job. Will it be tough to balance a job and college studies? Is there many papers to type? How long do assignments take?

Good minors to go with a CS degree?

What's the most surprising thing about jobs in the Computer Science industry?

I'm working on a CS degree right now, and some of the curriculum really likes to emphasize that STEM jobs sometimes are not what you would expect them to be while you're studying for them. So I'm curious what was surprising about jobs in CS. #technology
